European Live Dates
Twelve months on from their last album Fever, Balthazar are today pleased to share a brand new track Halfway through Play It Again Sam.
A renowned and prolific live entity, last year saw the band continually on-the-road and whilst touring saw Halfway written – possibly titled because it falls between Fever and its anticipated follow-up? The more flexible approach to the making of Fever mirrored by the resultant collection of tracks continues with Halfway, the continual live itinerary playing new tracks has enhanced that creativity and seen both songwriters and vocalists Maarten Devoldere and Jinte Deprez continue the writing process on tour.
A joint composition from the Devoldere / Deprez partnership Halfway features Jinte on lead vocals, drawing upon his penchant for old school R&B whilst Maarten and his bandmates prompt some extraordinary harmonies that have long proven to be a distinctive trait of one of Belgium’s most successful artists.
